1
Combine salt and sugar in a dish.

Roast pineapple at 425u00b0 until lightly caramelized, about 25 to 30 minutes, brushing with glaze every 10 minutes. Turn broiler on high; broil pineapple 2 to 3 minutes or until caramelized and lightly charred. Remove from oven. Let stand until glaze is set, about 5 minutes.
5
Scatter watercress or arugula on a platter. Place pineapple on platter; arrange prosciutto around pineapple. Spoon any remaining glaze over pineapple. Sprinkle pineapple platter with pomegranate, mint, and pepper.
